Cemetery transcription by members of the Jacksonville
Area
Genealogical and Historical Society
This treeless cemetery is apparently well
maintained.
A fine storm fence and gate enclose the burial ground. The cemetery is
atop a hill and adjacent to Spunky Ridge Road. Spunky Ridge Road
connects
with Illinois Route 104 just west of Hodges (Muntman) Cemetery at
Meredosia
Hill and continues eastward to the village of Concord. Hemminghaus
Cemetery
is about three miles east of Hodges Cemetery. A steep and brushy
embankment
allows this cemetery to be about six or seven feet above the roadbed.
Legal
description of the site of Hemminghaus Cemetery is in the northeast
quarter
of the northeast quarter of Section 28 in Township 16 N and Range 12 W.
